Not that this is new news or anything, but for those of you in the know on Sunday it will be the 12 year anniversary of the death of Ayrton Senna at Imola in 1994. Words really dont describe the pictures and i can only imagine the heartache of everybody involved must have gone through.

He was one of the greatest and it was a shame to lose him this way. To see him battle with Schmi and Hill for a couple more years would have been priceless... Anyway for those of you who've never watched the footage here it is:

Hey Man

Hurts to think about it man.... i still get teary when i see the video... its like it was almost yesterday... i was 10 when he died and i felt like i watched him race for a lifetime.... i watched everysingle race he raced in.... i cant stand formula one these days... racing was so much more competitive those days... so many more winners... like piquet, prost, mansell patrese, berger & the man Senna.... no schumi everywhere over everyones faces..... i would have loved it if things did not turn out the way they did on may day..... how good would have it been to watch senna vs schumi vs hill some mad racing... but yeah.... i always light a candle around 6ish coz thats the time the life support was switched off....

that video is terrible. it doesnt show what happend. it just shows senna being worked on in his car with some awful music playing over the top. it was morbid. if you actually want to see what happend instead of just 5 minutes of medical personnel working on a dying man then watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPDCnw-pNCk...enna%20accident

That last link from the beer baron is such a sad clip. I read that he was going to, after that race, speak to the officials about making the sport safer.....really sad that he didnt get a chance.

RIP Senna, RIP Ratzenberger (who also died on the same weekend - but during practice)

    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
